Background / History
Harry lived with the Dursleys alongside Kane. When Kane ran away, Harry defied Vernon Dursley to search for him, then pursued him into an alley and tried to bring him home. Harry believed that food and shelter mattered more than escaping the Dursleys' emotional abuse; Kane disagreed and used shadow creatures to blind him and escape. Harry vowed to become strong enough to make Kane regret leaving. 1 2
Professor McGonagall later delivered Harry's Hogwarts letter. During her inquiry into Kane's disappearance, Harry provided the clothes bearing Kane's residual shadow magic, helping establish that Kane was alive. 8
Harry reunited with Kane at the Leaky Cauldron while shopping for Hogwarts supplies. He immediately attacked him, but Kane restrained and defeated him with shadow magic. Despite their volatile reunion, Harry chose Kane's friendship over the newly met Weasley family and later paid for Kane's school supplies and custom wand. 11 13
At Hogwarts, Harry became Gryffindor's Seeker. He formed a close group with Kane, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger, though he repeatedly found himself drawn into Kane's dangerous schemes, including the search for gems in Little Hangleton's graveyard. 40 55 59
During his second summer, Kane and Ron flew to Privet Drive on the Mantis Shrimp and removed Harry from the Dursleys' home. Harry thereafter stayed with the Weasleys before returning to Hogwarts. 93
Kane later crafted Harry the Fire Ring, a high-speed custom Quidditch broom. Harry used it to destroy a Bludger and catch the Golden Snitch against Slytherin, but collapsed from poisoning during the ensuing celebration. Kane remained in the Hospital Wing to protect him when Dobby appeared. 136 139 140
Personality
Harry is fiercely loyal to Kane. His first response to Kane's disappearance was to search for him, and his anger at being left behind became a drive to confront him directly. Even after being repeatedly outmatched, he continued trying to understand Kane's reasons for leaving the Dursleys. 1 2 11 14
He longs for family and belonging. The warmth of the Weasley household strongly affects him, while the Mirror of Erised reveals his deepest desire to see his parents. 11 63
Harry can be compassionate and protective, particularly toward Dobby, but he is also susceptible to Kane's rule-bending influence. He initially condemned grave robbing, then rationalized helping Kane dig for a ruby. 59 156
